Very interesting Elizabeth.
My first reaction was to wonder if William's wife was the reason he was successful! I don't mean that she had money - just that she may have encouraged (pushed?) him to make something of himself.
I have several families in my tree where one child is significantly more successful (at least financially) than the others. Unlike your husband, I'm always descended from one of the other children!!
